| Kool Aid
Man I should have done this a long time ago...  All you big bore fans will know what I'm talking about.  Tonight it is time for the ~annual big bore shock fluid change...since none of it has leaked out since last July. I'm sure it's brown. Still no sound of air bubbles within.Traxxas rocks. J |

The pic was for the tire. The "no loss of fluid" in the big bores, is what "ppl with big bores know about" : thumbsup: (Cause I read it how you did, the first time I looked at it) | |

| ABEC7 motor bearings
FYI if your HH puller motors ever cavitate under acceleration or deceleration then you likely have a bearing that, however still OK, is just not spec enough fight the power of the magnets in these cans. Try these from Boca. $7 ea I believe. Problem solved. Luckily they have IDs printed on them so you won't confuse them with your old bearings...I almost did.  |

If they sound like they are running rough or have an RPM dependent squeal to them, the rotor is likely vibrating/cavitating. J | |

That might explain a previous "issue" with my old 500.. I didn't find it hindering in anyway, just a little extra noise.. Thanks Joel! |

| CF plate is tough!
Carnage post. Props to Krawl and his bad ass CF plate. Years ago he cut my wheels and Saturday, I finall broke one. Six foot fall to solid rock. My G5 Ti axle won the fight. With a little help from Lisa's flashlight and screwdriver (anvil and hammer) and JRock's glue, it was good as new for 20 more gates. Guess I need to process the back up set of plates Krawl made for me after all. Even solid plate is not indestructable...but almost.  Thanks Lisa.  Thanks Lisa.  |

Man, who designed a course that you had to jump off a six foot cliff? I know you wouldn't have done it on accident!  |

| Voodoo Hookers
I've always wanted to build this tire. Silver Voodoo carcass and Gold U4 lugs! Gold compound is insane soft. I spun them on the lathe for a minute or two to knock off the sharp leading edges. Not the best tire for every rock surface but holy crap they are cool.     |

How did you turn them so nice? Overstuff with foam?

I hope you're running them @ BLC'S next comp? I need another podium Finish. Thinking out of the box for sure. How long did it take to make racing slicks? (Sand off lugs) |
